Environmental Studies and Issues

Hudsonia was asked by the Hurley CAC to identify and map ecologically significant habitats in an approximate 1500 acre area south of Main Street and east of Route 209 within the Town of Hurley. They used a great variety of information to identify and digitally map habitats in the study area. The purpose of this assessment was to provide biodiversity information for the town to use in land use planning.

The objectives of this study and plan were to map the groundwater resources in detail, identify potential sources of contamination and outline protection strategies and future work. One such approach would be the development of a municipal water system for portions of the area. Accordingly, possible areas for municipal water sources have been identified as part of this report.
